The reform proposed by Benjamin Netanyahu has been heavily criticized and is seen as increasing political power over the judiciary, giving parliament more control over the country's judiciary.
Benjamin Netanyahu is an Israeli politician, member of the conservative Likud party, known for his hard-line stance on security and foreign affairs issues, including conflict with Palestinians
If the reform proposed by the politician is approved, it would be allowed, for example, for parliament to annul Supreme Court decisions.
Netanyahu expressed himself on social media with a few words:
“I urge all protesters in Jerusalem, right and left, to act responsibly and not to use violence. We are all brothers,” he said.
A judicial reform is a process aimed at upgrading the judicial system of a country or region. Such reform may include changes in legislation, the judicial process, the structure of courts and tribunals, legal practices and procedures, among other aspects.
The objectives of judicial reform may vary depending on the country and the specific situation. Overall, it is a complex and time-consuming process, involving a wide range of actors, including the judiciary, the legislature and the executive, as well as civil society and other stakeholders.
